Techstars is pleased to launch its Web3 Accelerator which works with entrepreneurs building in web3 and enabling the next wave of growth in the decentralized internet and in tokenized economies.
They invest in and accelerate founders enabling the onboarding and engagement of the first one billion users of web3. Where they see a big push towards the ‘protocolization’ of web services, there is so much to build for capital, data and machines to better serve us. Incentive mechanisms, utilities, and usability are key but they know there is a lot taking shape – from application layers and tooling, to infrastructure, interoperability, security, identity and more.
Techstars is the worldwide network that helps entrepreneurs succeed. As one of the largest pre-seed investors in the world, they’ve funded over 3,200 companies that have gone on to have a market cap of $79B+. Techstars portfolio companies include more than 100 companies with valuations of over $100M, and 19 of them have already reached unicorn status including SendGrid, ClassPass, and Chainalysis.
Techstars accelerators have one goal: to help entrepreneurs succeed. During each three-month program, they surround companies with the best mentors and an unrivaled network of corporate partners, investors, and alumni.
